Baltimore Ravens fire offensive coordinator Cam Cameron

Caldwell to replace Cameron as coordinator

WBAL-TV sports director Gerry Sandusky has confirmed that the Ravens let Cameron go with just three games left in the regular season.

Cameron met with Ravens head coach John Harbaugh this morning and left the building without talking to players.

"With our coaches and players, the solution is in the building. We are going to make the most of our opportunities going forward, and this change gives us a better possibility to achieve our goals," Harbaugh said in a news release.

Jim Caldwell, the quarterbacks coach of the team, will replace Cameron as the team's offensive coordinator. Harbaugh met with Caldwell after his discussion with Cameron this morning.

The Ravens are currently 16th in the NFL in passing yards and 17th overall in rushing yards.

"We have a lot of work to do, and we have the coaches and players in place to achieve our goals this season. We are working on that right now. I'm excited about where we are and where we are going. "It's not about fair or unfair, right or wrong. My responsibility is to the whole team and what's best for them right now. We need a change. Our plan and our goals are to win games, win our division and get to the playoffs, " said Harbaugh in the release.

Baltimore is coming off of two straight losses by three points. The Ravens still lead the division by two games over the Pittsburgh Steelers and Cincinnati Bengals.
